the point you fail to address adequately, either this time or the last time you cited it when arguing against cutler, was the 'context' of the teams involved. cutler playing for vanderbilt and going 5 and 6 - you point to that as a flaw or a reason to discredit his potential, as if the vanderbilt football program is anywhere near texas or usc. the point is moot, but how successful do you think young or leinhart would be playing for vanderbilt? in his last three games (loss in double overtime i believe to florida, loss to kentucky, win over tennesse), here's his numbers: 94 of 147 (64%), 12 td's, 2 int's. maybe he had those numbers because the defenses he faced were otherwise distracted by the venerable vanderbilt rushing attack, or all those other all-americans on the field for the commodores. you cite the effect of winning v. losing - how will young and leinhart handle getting their a**es kicked playing for a crappy team? young seems to have a lot of character and mental toughness, but leinhart? the guy goes back for a fifth year, takes basketweaving, parties at playboy mansion - we'll see what kind of toughness he has when he's playing for the saints. do you think cutler would be distracted to the point of ineffectiveness by winning all the time?
